This work discusses high‐pressure gas solubility. Reference state is the Henry's law and a two‐parameter corresponding states model is used for the liquid phase. Pure gas is used as the vapor phase for the high‐molecular paraffin's gas‐liquid equilibrium. The systems under study are mixtures of carbon dioxide and normal paraffin up to a chain length of 44 carbon atoms. Correlated liquid compositions are in the 1 % to 3 % average absolute relative deviation range, with a maximum error of about 7 %. Using a known system as reference, the model could be used to predict solubility. In this case average absolute relative deviations are below 6 % in most cases.
